I could also see it like the following: { "kty":"RSA", "kid":"juliet@capulet.lit", "n":".....", "e":"AQAB", "x5u":"https://capulet.lit/juliet.crt" // and/or "x5c":[....] } Having a "X509" JWK type might solve one problem I can see having in XMPP-E2E, but it that same problem could be solved with the above. Then again, I could be completely off in the weeds. - m&m Matt Miller < mamille2@cisco.com > Cisco Systems, Inc.
